@DanielChristy19 none's ass is dumber than yours...

[kakureru]

check out my "hdd speakers"

[danz409]

wow. this sounds pritty good for a HDD speaker. doing some experiments myself. iv got some plans to make something a lil differant

[TheDoomsaier]

hmm.... think i maybe gonna use this for a school project

[syckboy]

I'm not sure what is more disturbing.

Sure it was cool that he made sound come out of a HDD, but WHY....WHYYYYYYYYY "ace of base"?

Dudes "Street-Cred" was just reset to ZERO.

[psyfertech]

i found an instructable of this and its amazing how it actually works, i made one earlier today and hooked it to my kenwood that pushes out like 80 watts per channel and it pushed so much it went into speaker protection mode and shut down on me, lol

[zinkoxyde]

The head isn't vibrating too much. The head is parked (its a safety function to keep the head still when the drive is off). There is a little piece of plastic that keeps the arm in place, if you tape that down or remove it the head will move freely along the width of the platter. It will look cooler too.

[kartboy1234]

the head is not parked. songs with low bass do not move the head alot. songs with high base shake it alot.

[dazednconfuzd619]

this is kinda cool exept than you can use just about any electrical motor as a speaker. thats what it looks like is happanin here as long as you dont care about the quality of sound.

[crackeddout]

lol it only plays left sound though O.o

could you make 2 and have one right one left??

[marcvie9]

yes

[musicvideo01]

This could be the next generation of speakers lol

[xxl606]

into whitch two little wires did you connect your wire that goes into the amp?

[StompySan]

Would make a good tweeter for a car stereo. Hmm... My next project.

[coondogtheman1234]

michaellaity what kind of amp are you using in this test

[michaellaity]

I have know idea. It is some ancient sony thing.

[coondogtheman1234]

it looks like an old sony set of computer speakers of a subwoofer, also what are those square things seen reflected off the hard drive disk at 6 seconds they look like lights or TVs even i dunno

[michaellaity]

Yes it is from a sony set of computer speakers my dad bought for my brothers first computer running windows 3.1. The square things are the doors to idea cabinets.

[coondogtheman1234]

I had a Digital Venturis 486 SX PC and it ran windows 3.11 it was a nice pc till i installed a multimedia kit and started recording music on it fillin up the hard drives and it only had like 700 mb of hard drive spaceout of 2 drives a 270 mb and a 345 mb

[holyfuckenshit]

SOUNDS LIKE SHIT

[michaellaity]

Duh its a hard drive.

[googleguz]

Do this with a fan and watch what happens

[frajortas]

ummm it makes a sound derrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rrrrrrrrrrrr

[tjorn2]

OMG i just tesed this! you can also connect it to the rotor that spinns the disks! AND YOU CAN ALSO CONNECT IT TO A LARGE COMPUTER FAN!!! w00t

[kartboy1234]

it will work with any electeric motor if you hook it up to the terminals.

[tjorn2]

i tried this and it worked but the reading arm didnt move

[kartboy1234]

The song that you play has to have alot of bass to make the head move because the high pitched sounds make it move so fast you dont see it.

[coondogtheman1234]

Use songs that have very low bass like techno bass google for bass testing tracks and there are some free ones out there you can check limewire too look up techno bass

[1killo1]

it won't be very good for storing data now though.. lolz nice job, i'm going to do this with a busted hhd of mine, the soldering iron is warming up right now while i'm typing ...

[qwertymac93]

wow, i got that song just now, it sound like a hole diferent song! i think your only playing the left side or something"i saw the sigh, and it opened up my eyes!" lol, the coress is completely gone in your video.

[kartboy1234]

One entire channel is cut out because I only have one harddrive. and it does sound different.

[coondogtheman1234]

you should have hooked it to the contacts that touch the circuit board thats what I did but its all good

[camarojay007]

lol just pickin on ya gotta expect it your broadcasting yourself on the net dont loose sleep over it l8tr

[kartboy1234]

Yea I know.

[camarojay007]

coo; set up BUT... ya know how i know your gay...ace of bass lol

[kartboy1234]

No Im not gay that is the only song that would show the head moving enough. And I was playing it off of my friends mp3 player. So call him gay.

[ChaosNinja00]

Thank you so much for making this video. I couldn't find anything that explained how to do it, really great, 5 stars.

[kuenicool]

its the magnet at the end of the voice coil. you can take a piece of foam rubber that you must put besides the spool. then u gonna get a nice sound. I´ve built this thing too an i used that trick. you´ll get a nice sound, if you do it!

[kartboy1234]

There are three platers in this hard drive.

[WiiMan1012]

how many platters are in the hdd?

[punkbuster2]

cool :)
